Not that this car is Uber Clean (yet) was/is well filthy! Dude mustv lived on a gravel road. Washed all the fiddly bits where dirt sits and starts rust, inside doors, under boot tray (will eventually rip out the gas tank and clean under that too as well as rust proof/cavity wax the fuk outta it. Vehicle will be carrying acid and chemicals so will def need to get onto this asap...
Only took group pics of the wagon with the other 3 before I started changing the car, so far changed grill, head lites, bonnet and door cards as well as stripping and cleaning the dash grills and tail lites and detail cleaning of such stuff as door jambs and other painted areas not externally cleaned whilst washing.
Also sprayed some color match 'monza red' over the big primer patch on side of car. And put on some sign writing for the business.
Have reserved a set of 80% tread 2nd hand 195/55/14s to go on my piazza rims for this wags... (reserved till Im paid next near end of month...) altho the spitfires are growing on me, defnitly reckon they looks horrid witrh the TG headlites/grill...
Plans are to paint floor pan with bedliner paint, spray bomb any other painted bits in footwell satin blk, remove monster tach, put in SLX gauges, Replace damaged gauge surround, install centre console, mount my recaros on gem rails and mash them in as the std gem sedan seats are A.) Fuct, and B.) dont have a quik release to recline outta the way if u wanna grab somthing outta the back... Reckon I cud get some of this done this weekend... also need to chuk another coat of red over the primer and put my signwriting over it.
Pics... then bed, I sick
Tard me piccies...
the mighty G200 monster 4 banger
the sticky reidue from the white tape took fukn ages to remove...
here she be with her new stable mates
fugly door cards before...
...and after installation of green chevini's doorcards... bottom clips dont line up...o well! Will have to drill/screw along bottom, maybe just the corners...
chucked the red bonnet from my 1st wag (1st t car!) on as the matty b one was rangi and had holes from a dodgy install of what must have been a well hideous bonnet scoop... Reckon its lookin pretty mint now, will keep doing the elcheapo tidy up on it...
